Is it just me or is the beet sugar used in Sweden grainier than the cane sugar? I did notice too that it didn't seem to be quite as sweet as cane sugar, but that part is okay with me.

Cakes are only as good as what you put in them.

You mean larger grained? Yes, it is large-grained compared with granulated sugar *back home*.
Finally, the consumer here in Sweden can get something that just about equals our superfine sugar. It's called Finkornigt strösocker or something like that. We've been able to get it wholesale (as well as *real* brown sugar and liquid vanilla, just to name a few) for years, but your average Svensson has never had access to these items.
Superfine sugar is best for baking.

So I take it I can find this fine-grained sugar in the regular stores or not? The baking I've done using my American recipes tastes okay, but I notice the graininess of the sugar myself.

yeah, you can find it now in stores. I think the package is a bit smaller than that 2-kilo one we're used to, and I'm not sure of the price.
happy Baking!!

It's four weeks to Jul, I'm not working at the moment and it's colder than - well, you get the idea. What else is there to DO but bake?  |
